About the show
KALEIDOSCOPE is a 60-minute musical theatre and storytelling production from The Powerhouse Project, a student and youth company, performed at Bedlam Theatre as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show follows four characters — Soul (the inner self), Aura (the outer self), Echo (memories) and the Mirrorbearer/Narrator (reflection) — alongside the different Hues that shape human experience: joy, fear, sadness, passions, losses and triumphs. It is a show about the full spectrum of what it means to be human. Contains strobe lighting; suitable for ages 16 and above.
Why see this show?
A thoughtful, introspective piece from a young company that takes the inner life seriously. The structure — four aspects of self encountering the full range of human emotion — gives it genuine ambition for a student production.
